LITERARY NOTES.

Common Sense SciencC.-By Grant Al
len, Boston: ID. LOthrOp Il Co. Price
S1.5O. Grant Allen is known as one of
the brightest and most interesting of
writers on natural history topics and also
upon what may be called everyday sci
ence. In the volume before US we have
twentv-eight chapters upon as many diff
ferent subjects, none of them eXhauStively
treated. to be sure. but all of them suggeS-
tive, and calculated 10 awaken interest and
induce further Investigation. The reader
who opens the book, for instance, at the
paper on The Balance of Nature, "
and follows the author through the
dozen pages devoted to that subject,
will hardly leave the matter there So
curious are many of the facts lie adduceS,
and so intensely interesting the train of
thought aroused that other lines than those
mentioned will be taken up by readers fond
of analytical study and followed out as far
as possible in the direction of either Origi-
nal causes or final results. Mr.. Allen, by
a series of illustrative facts. shows how
curiously all things are interlaced in this
world of ours, one thing so dOvetailing into
the next that it is impossible to alter one of
the pieces in the least degree without up
setting the harmony of the whole. Moth
ing in the world stands absolutely alone.
Each created being has endless relations
with the whole chain and group of
creatures by which it is surround
ed. Another particularly interesting
paper is upon Instinct and Reasoning" " in
which the author asserts that human beings
share the gift of instinct with the brute ere
alton, and are not. as some assert, governed
entirely in their actions by their reasoning
faculties. And, on the other hand, he
shows by reference to common facts that
animals often exercise reason. In a chap
ter upon The Origin of Bowing" he ex-
plains that il was once a signal of submis-
sion, and exactly the same in its import as
savage prOStTation before tyranniCal ruler
50 that a ceremony that started in saviSh
submission has grown at last into diStin-
gushing habit of the polished and civilized
gentleman. Other notable topics treated in
the book are The Earths Interior. "
knowledge and Opinion" Second Ma
ture," ''Self-COnsciouSneSs," Sleep" etc.
The volume is bound in library form, with
gilt top and rough edges.

SATURDAY EVENING. JANUARY 20. 1873
LILLE SITERDAT PIPER.

The Saturday issue, in enlarged proper
tions and with specially interesting features.
is no novelty in the leading even
ing newspaper concerns of the coun-
try. The New York Mail and
Express owned by Mr.. Cyrus W.
Field and edited by Major J. NJ. Bundy
is probably the best and most successful
evening paper printed east of the Alleghany
mountains, and it issues a dOuble-sheet on
Saturdays. which for completeness and at
tractiveness is unrivalled. The Washington
Epeninq Star issues a double sheet, and a
very good one, on Saturdays. The same S
true. also, of the indianapolis NcIrs, one
o. the best and most prosperous evening
papers printed west of the Allegheny
mountains. Then the Akron Beacon, one
of Ohio's leading evening papers, spreads
itself out, TO an immense extent every Sat
urday. Not one of the concerns mentioned
issues paper on Sunday. and all are pros
porous, and so far as our observation goes.
their owners and editors are happy. Their
Saturday issues are especially adapted to
family reading, and therefore have especial
attractions TO all people who gather about
the evening lamp or the cheerful fireSide.
And for this reason the paper has especial
value TO advertisers.
We take great pleasure in presenting to
our friends the first double sheet of the
Saturday evening REPURLIC.

That is to say, your lungs. Also
your breathing machinery. Very
wonderful machinery it is. Not only
the larger air-passages, but the thous-
ands OF little tubes and cavities head

When these are ciogged and choked
with matter which ought not to be

work. And what they do, they can
not do well.
Call it cold, cough, croup, pneu-
monia, catarrh, consumption or any OF
the family of throat and nose and head
and lung distractions, all are bad.
All ought to be got rid of. There is
just one sure way to get rid of them.

BRITAIN STEPS IN.
HALIFAX, Aug. S.-All the British
war ships in North American waters
are to take hand in settling the fish
cry trouble. The announcement has
caused general surprise on all sides.
1t is the first time that the British
authorities have interfered in the
fisheries, and the unexpected change
OF policy occasions no little anxiety
here among Americans. The men-of-
war will not act as patrols o: to keep
American fishermen outside the for
bidden waters but will make seizures
when they cross the lines. There are
three war ships available for the ser
vice at this moment. Admiral
Lyons flag ship BellerOphOn, the
the Canada and the PyladeS. These
vessels are now in Halifax. The
present intention is to send ships
early next week to the Gulf of st.
Lawrence TO reinforce fhe Canadian
cruisers thre already.
HIGH MORAL" sUAsIoS.
HALIFAX, Aug. 8.-Admirsl Luse,
commander of the United States
naval forces In the north Atlantic
waters. has authorized the statement
that his ship will not be sent to the
Gulf of st. Lawrence to prevent by
force the seizure of American fisher
men by the dominion cruisers. but
rather to render such moral support
as the mere presence OF federal ships
might afford. In the event of the
seizure OF an American fishing vessel
for an alleged violation of the laws
of the dominion the case must be
fought out, he says, in the courts.
THEY KISSED AND PARTED.
GAsTIEN, Aug. S-The scene of the
parting of the emperors yesterday
was touching. Emperor William
pressed the hand of emperor Francis
Joseph and said: by the Almighty's
leave, au revoir until next year."
Emperor Francis Joseph replied: at
is sure and certain" At this point
William was overcome with emotion.
He kissed the emperor Francis Jo-
seph again and again and they finally
separated.
GOOD WHEAT CROP.
LONDON, Aug. 8.-The wheat crop
in France is good; the estimated
yield will amount to 100000 hec.
tolitres against los, ,0O0, 900 in 1886.
The Russian harvest reports are
satisfactory.
The crop is especially good in Bes.
sarabia and Podolla; it is doubtful
in Volhynia, Minck and Moheeler
owing to excessive rain, and fair in
the provinces bordering on the sea OF
Azova and the river Don and excep-
tionally fine in Charkoff and Pol
tava.

SOME SALMON sTATIsTIOs.
Aggregate Pack for the Present Season
Figures From Former Years OF Business

The salmon pack Of the Columbia
river exhibits many fluctuations in
numbers, in value, and in results.
The first year that the aggregate
pack on the river reached 100000
cases was in 1869, the following year
it was 5000, and il advanced rapid
ly by seasons till In 1876 there were
45e, 900 cases put up on the river. The
next year-1S77-was q good
deal like 1887 has been:
cold, wet, stormy weather ex-
tended into June, few fish through
out the season, and a very scsnt July
run. In 1878 the number of cases
packed was 10000; in T9, 49, 700; in
80, $4,000 cases; in 81, $4,000; in
80, 81, 800; in '83, 629, 400; in 1884,
$4,000; in '85, $751; 800; from March
81, 1886, to April 1, 1887, Esq., ,693 cases
salmon were shipped from the Colum-
bia river: the pack, proper, for SO
may be set down at AS, 500 cases.

Should the estimate of 750. 900 cases

is cited tina. this year every inlet,

Port Oxford to Behring Sea, has a

Up to 1876 nearly all the Columbia
river salmon was sentt 10 San Francis

dency was to send q considerable per-

English shipments have greatly fall
